It was not just Nakama thread, but the actual first political thread of this forum.
That's actually something the moderation didn't understand and the reason why this thread was so much fun for me.
People were fighting for their candidate and by extention the values of their candidate, but they were also targetting the values of adversaries and other candidates, they was the hypocrits, the conservatists and the progressist just like they were trolls and racists or toxic people..
And in the middle.
Carrot VS Yamato a conflict, opposing two completely opposite characters, that was mirroring the election happening between Trump and Biden:
- On one hand, people who were defending a character for completely biased reasons:
No actual narrative relevancy and based on actual virilist value (
people who were defending Yamato were refusing their/her/his transidentity and only accepted her because she was the daughter of ..... )
- On the other side there was me (
and maybe one or two people I don't remember), with a lot of biases, yes, but also a quasi scientific method trying to understand and prove a point of view with (
I kid you not) at least 50 word pages of actual theorycrafting work never released on a global theory about the character.
> I was the one called delusionnal / missguided / not knowledgable / toxic ... while facing an army of people insulting me all day long trying to prove something based on wind (
but actually mostly trying to prove that I was wrong because I did most of the actual defense of Yamato).
And I faced that WITHOUT EVEN ONE single insult directed at people (
the pigeon thing was never an insult) and was still threadban 3 times lmao
(and perma banned to this day, I think they are scared that I go full political on the thread again)
It was as close as political as it can get. A real conflict of values. It's in fact because of this thread that I asked TAC for a new political section outside of this political thread. (
even if for the moment, it's not used so much because carefully hidden)
In the end I was proven wrong
(I still wonder about a few stuff...) but this was a very fun political time, I think it helped me a little to maintain a routine, but I wont do that again, it took all my energy
